We have examined a variety of conditions for solubilizing and electrophoresing cell proteins in order to define optimum conditions for studying proteins modified by ADP-ribosylation. We have identified conditions in which proteins can be quantitatively extracted from cells in an undegraded form with the protein-ADPribose linkages intact. Effective measures include boiling cells briefly (4 min) in the presence of 2% SDS and 2 M urea at pH 6.8. Both SDS and urea were present in the 6-18% gradient polyacrylamide gel matrix used for electrophoresis. Under these conditions good resolution of proteins of a wide molecular-weight range is obtained. This system has been used to compare protein ADP-ribosylation in non-transformed and polyma virus-transformed baby hamster kidney (BHK) fibroblasts, since the latter cells have a greater NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase activity (measured in isolated nuclei and permeabilized cells). Addition of DNAase to permeabilized BHK cells over the range 10-150 micrograms led to a progressively greater activation of transferase compared with controls. When PyY cells were used, however, maximum activation was achieved with only 10 micrograms of DNAase, further additions producing a successively smaller activation relative to control cells without added nuclease. There were also differences between these cells in response to salt. Addition of NaCl (to about 0.3 M) to BHK cells resulted in various extents of transferase activation, whereas any addition of NaCl to the incubate of permeabilized PyY cells decreased transferase activity. These different enzyme activities between this transformed and non-transformed cell line are for the most part not reflected in the protein modification profiles seen on autoradiograms of acrylamide gels after electrophoresis 32P-labelled proteins. A variety of proteins are modified and their molecular weights depend on the NA concentration in the permeabilized cell incubation. At 0.5 microM NAD+ there were two major acceptors with Mr values of 14 kDa and 30 kDa, and at 100 microM NAD+, three major acceptors, with Mr values of 19 kDa. 45 kDa and greater than 170 kDa. NAD concentrations of between 1 microM and 100 microM had no further effect on protein ADP-ribosylation profiles, except for the protein(s) of Mr greater than 170 kDa, pointing to a critical difference around 0.5-1.0 microM substrate. In some experiments, however, a difference was observed in the intensity of radioactivity in two bands. This may represent two different proteins, or a single protein modified to different extents.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

An affinity adsorbent for ADP-ribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.30) has been synthesized by coupling 3-aminobenzamide to Sepharose 4B. Using this material, ADP-ribosyltransferase from human placenta has been purified from crude extract to homogeneity within a few hours. The enzyme has an apparent Km for NAD+ of 52 microM. Its molecular mass is 115,000 as determined by gel electrophoresis. The enzyme is DNA dependent and stimulated by histone, its temperature optimum is at 25 degrees C, and its pH optimum is around pH 9. alpha-NAD+, thymidine, caffeine, theophylline, theobromine, 3-methoxybenzamide, and nicotinamide inhibit the enzyme. Purification of ADP-ribosyltransferases from horse, rat, and chicken liver was also achieved with the method described.

The activity of purified bovine seminal RNAase and pancreatic RNAase A (EC 3.1.27.5) has been investigated following in vitro ADPribosylation in the presence of nuclear ADPribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.30) and NAD+ X ADPribosylation of these enzymes was correlated with a significant decrease in their activities. Approximately three residues of ADPribose were present per mol of enzyme. Removal of the bound ADPribose restored enzyme activity to near normal levels. Similar results were obtained with nuclei isolated from bull seminal vesicles as an endogenous source of seminal RNAase and nuclear ADPribosyltransferase. The findings suggest that in vitro ADPribosylation has a reversible inactivating effect on ribonucleases.

The interaction of nucleotides with pertussis toxin (PT), and their effects on the ability of the toxin to ADP-ribosylate pure Ni, were evaluated. [32P]ATP (10 nM) bound directly to dithiothreitol-activated PT. This binding was competitively inhibited by nucleotides and anions with the following IC50 concentrations in order of decreasing potency: ATP = ATP gamma S (adenosine-5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate)) = 0.2-0.3 microM, GDP beta S (guanosine-5'-O-(2-thiodiphosphate)) = 2-3 microM, GTP gamma S (guanosine-5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate)) = 10-15 microM, ADP = 20-25 microM, GTP = 30-40 microM, GMP-P(NH)P (guanyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate) = 100-150 microM, GDP = 150-200 microM, Pi = SO4(2-) = 20 mM and Cl- = acetate = 30-35 mM. Treatment of PT with ATP, AMP-P(NH)P, GTP, GDP, or GDP beta S, resulted in a stimulated state of NAD+-Ni ADP-ribosyltransferase activity. Addition of ATP, AMP-P(NH)P (adenyl-5'-yl imidodiphosphate), GTP, GDP, and GDP beta S to the ADP-ribosylation reactions resulted in increased rates of ADP-ribosyl-Ni formation. It is concluded that these effects on the nucleotides are due to their action to stimulate the activity of PT. At concentrations of PT between 0.04 and 0.4 microgram/ml, the stimulation of ADP-ribosylation of Ni effected by nucleotides was hysteretic in nature, exhibiting an approximately 25-min long lag when GDP was used as the activating nucleotide. These lags decreased with increasing concentrations of PT, and were abolished by pretreatment of the toxin with GDP or ATP. Preliminary incubation of Ni with GDP had no effect on the lag in its ADP-ribosylation by non-nucleotide treated PT. Addition of divalent cations (Mg2+, Mn2+, and Ca2+) inhibited formation of ADP-ribosyl-Ni, possibly by causing aggregation and denaturation of Ni. This is the first demonstration that both adenine and guanine nucleotides interact directly with PT and act to stimulate its activity to ADP-ribosylate Ni, and that guanine nucleotides do so regardless of whether they are nucleoside di- or triphosphates.

The EJ-ras gene was placed under the transcriptional control of the steroid-inducible mouse mammary tumor virus promoter/enhancer and introduced into Rat-1 fibroblasts, yielding the 14C cell line. When these cells were exposed to dexamethasone in vitro, EJ-ras mRNA was induced 15- to 20-fold, the cells grew in agar, and, after injection of cells into syngenic Fischer 344 rats, they produced lethal fibrosarcomas. Inhibitors of poly(ADP ribose) polymerase, which prevent the activation of the purified enzyme by a synthetic octadeoxyribonucleotide duplex, inhibited both in vivo tumorigenicity and in vitro growth in soft agar. The enzyme inhibitor 1,2-benzopyrone, which was studied in detail, and other polymerase inhibitors had no effect on EJ-ras mRNA or p21 protein expression. Poly(ADP ribose) polymerase [NAD+:poly(adenosine diphosphate D-ribose) ADP-D-ribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.30] was inhibited by the drug in both untreated and dexamethasone-treated cells both in vitro and in vivo to the same extent, but biological consequences of enzyme inhibition were manifest only when the cells were in the transformed tumorigenic state.

In mammalian cells, NAD+ serves a dual role as a respiratory coenzyme and as a substrate for the posttranslational poly(ADP-ribose) modification of chromatin proteins, catalyzed by the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase [NAD+ ADP-ribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.30]. Biological evidence strongly suggests that poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation modulates chromatin functions, although the precise molecular mechanisms involved have not yet been elucidated. Here we describe conditions for the rapid uptake of exogenously supplied NAD+ by living hepatocytes in primary monolayer culture. Raising the intracellular NAD+ concentration by 70% caused a 5-fold increase of chromatin-bound poly(ADP-ribose). We conclude that the constitutive level of posttranslational poly(ADP-ribose) modifications of chromatin proteins in mammalian cells is related to the availability of NAD+, which varies in different physiological and pathological states. We propose that poly-(ADP-ribose) may serve a hitherto unrecognized function by signaling altered metabolic conditions to the chromatin and thus modulate its functions in tune with changing metabolic states.

A 20-kilodalton adenosine nucleotide-binding protein (A-protein) extracted from rod outer segments is shown to catalyze the cholera toxin-mediated ADP-ribosylation of GTP-binding protein (G-protein) from the outer segment. Radiolabel from [adenylate-32P] NAD+ was associated specifically with both the alpha-subunit of G-protein and with A-protein in the presence of activated cholera toxin. In the absence of added A-protein, G-protein appears to undergo ADP-ribosylation at a slower rate. In the absence of G-protein, A-protein was found to be labeled following incubation with [adenylate-32P]NAD+ and cholera toxin. In the presence of G-protein, a light-dependent component of A-protein labeling was observed. A-protein is a labile component of rod outer segments and has an affinity for ADP. The findings suggest that A-protein may act as an ADP-ribosyltransferase in the cholera toxin-mediated ADP-ribosylation of G-protein.

NAD+:Protein ADP-ribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.30) (ADPRT) was purified from human placenta by affinity chromatography. With the purified enzyme specific antibodies were raised and partial amino acid sequences were determined. To one of the amino acid sequences corresponding oligonucleotides were synthesized. A sized HeLa lambda gt11 cDNA library was constructed and screened. Positive clones were characterized to be ADPRT specific by immuno- and hybridization techniques. Clone ADPRT-G8 reacted with affinity chromatographically purified specific antibodies and with two specific oligonucleotides. The DNA of this clone detected an mRNA of about 4 kb, sufficient in size to code for the ADPRT with an Mr of 116,000. Partial sequence analysis of this clone confirmed its identity by revealing sequences which code for peptides which were found in cyanogen bromide (CNBr) fragments of the purified enzyme. The ADPRT-G8 clone was characterized with respect to its restriction pattern. The cloned ADPRT cDNA now opens the possibility to investigate the role of this enzyme in control of cellular functions.

Covalent modification of proteins by ADP-ribosylation is a major mode of protein regulation in eukaryotic cells. ADP-ribosyltransferases have been characterized from mammals but little is known about these enzymes in lower vertebrates. We purified an ADP-ribosyltransferase (E.C. 2.4.2.30) from trout (Salmo trutta faris) by affinity chromatography and characterized it. The 11,700-fold purified activity shows a major protein band at a molecular mass of 75,000 kDa in a SDS-polyacrylamide gel. In situ reactivation of SDS gels showed the 75,000 kDa protein to be enzymatically active, and additional enzymatically active bands at molecular masses of 115,000, 90,000 and 87,000 kDa, respectively. The enzyme is capable of poly-ADP-ribosylation. It crossreacts with affinity purified antibodies raised against human poly(ADP-ribose)synthetase and, except for the temperature optimum, its properties strongly resemble the mammalian enzymes, indicating the conserved character of nuclear ADP-ribosyltransferases. The trout enzyme is DNA- and histone-dependent, has an optimal pH between 8 and 9 and an apparent Km for NAD+ of 24 microM. The temperature optimum is 10 degrees C compared with 25 degrees C for the human enzyme. Known ADP-ribosyltransferase inhibitors also inhibit the enzyme from trout.

Thiols such as cysteine and dithiothreitol are substrates for the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of pertussis toxin. When cysteine was incubated with NAD+ and toxin at pH 7.5, a product containing ADP-ribose and cysteine (presumably ADP-ribosylcysteine) was isolated by high-performance liquid chromatography, and characterized by its composition and release of AMP with phosphodiesterase. Cysteine has a Km of 105 mM at saturating NAD+ concentration. The ability of thiols to act as a substrate is one explanation for the very high concentrations (250 mM or greater) that have been observed to enhance the apparent NAD glycohydrolase activity of the toxin.
